"They were great! They worked fast and efficient. They were clean and respectful of the property. Their suggestions and questions regarding the patio were thoughtful and demonstrated their love and skill for what they do. I would certainly use them again when we decide to redo our driveway!"

"As others have said here on Home Advisor, Vincent and his wife Grecia do outstanding work, communicate better than any other contractor I've ever hired, and most importantly to me they are quality people. The price was fair and reasonable; they were flexible and super trustworthy. I actually enjoyed having them at my home believe it or not. We needed to tear up an old concrete driveway (~50' x 12') and replace it. Initially we thought we were going to go with asphalt because of the lower cost, but when we discussed the pros and cons with Vincent and compared his quote to those from other companies, we realized AA Outdoor could do a high quality concrete driveway at a price that was comparable to asphalt. Concrete will also save us maintenance and expense over asphalt too, and that decision was made in part because of the excellent communication and feedback from Vincent when we first started discussing the project. Vincent is very knowledgable and has decades of quality experience; I asked a ton of questions and he answered them all - I actually learned a lot from him. I recommend Vincent and Grecia (AA Outdoor Services) highly without a doubt!"

"James and his crew just finished my yard this Friday afternoon. They did an amazing job. Let me start from the very beginning. When I called for a quote, James returned the call expediently and he came on site. He gave me a quote. The quote was in the ball park, but what was special about James is that he had a vision! He examined the grounds and immediately came out with a plan based on your needs. James started to work in this business when he was only 6 years old as this is family business of three generations. Even though he is still so young, he is so very experienced. My initial plan was to repave the driveway. But after they came that day, I told James that I would like to get the backyard patio and the retaining wall fixed. They decided to start the patio first before the driveway. They were flexible and sent a crew to work on the patio next day. The patio with the retaining wall was done perfectly. They even added a drainage pipe to divert the rain in the retaining wall. The path leading to the front door of the house needed to be done also. Again, James had a vision how the new path should flow. I adopted his plan. The crew did a fantastic job. As the back yard was uneven. The crew brought tons of dirt and levelled the back yard. They extended the size of my yard by at least one third into the woods. The yard was graded so that excessive rain would flow into the woods. I am extremely pleased with the result. Today was the last day. They had 8 or 9 crews on site. They finalized the stonework and paved the driveway. Everything was done as scheduled. I asked James to spread some pebble rocks next to the newly built path. He did it. James and his crew have exceeded my expectations! They delivered high quality work timely and professionally. They got an A in my book. The total cost of my project was $57800. It might look a little pricey, but a lot of work was done. To be specific, here is the list of work done: A good size patio with retaining all A path from patio to the driveway The walking path from the driveway to the front door of the house (long) Levelling the back yard Small wall around a good size flower bed (10x20 approximately Retaining wall by the driveway Repaving the driveway (85 feet approximately) A few days after the job was done and paid for, I found some imperfections on the driveway, James sent his crew over and fixed those imperfections. Great service for after care. Thank you!"

"We have never had a better snow removal service. Can we give an A+ rating? Ivan is very professional and responsive, totally reliable and so thorough! And he really cares about his customers and listening to their concerns. Snow and ice removal is a safety issue at our house, so it is stressful in the winters. Ivan took away so much stress and we will hire him back for sure!"

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in East Haven, CT

To calculate how much pea gravel you need for your project, multiply the length, width, and depth of the area you want to cover to find the volume in cubic feet. Then, divide that number by 27 to convert it to cubic yards to determine the amount of pea gravel you need.

A yard of pea gravel weighs about 1.3 tons or 2,600 pounds. Keep in mind that wet gravel weighs more than dry, and different types of gravel can vary in weight. For example, due to its density, river rock weighs significantly more than crushed stone and pea gravel.

The ideal depth for pea gravel depends on the type and size of your project. You'll need at least two to three inches for walkways and patios and a minimum of six inches for driveways to support heavy vehicles and prevent shifting over time. Aim for a depth of three to four inches in decorative garden beds or drainage areas.

Pea gravel is attractive, versatile, and low-maintenance. It provides excellent drainage, making it ideal for pathways, driveways, and garden beds. On the downside, its sharp texture isn't ideal for bare feet, and it can be challenging to weed or remove once installed. It can also shift underfoot without proper edging, creating an uneven surface.

Alternative landscaping materials you can use instead of pea gravel include wood chips, decomposed granite, crushed stone, pebbles, quartz, mulch, sand, and river rock. These materials offer different aesthetics, performance, and costs, so it’s important to do your research to determine which one best fits your landscape design and budget.

Many homeowners choose pea gravel because it requires minimal upkeep compared to other landscaping materials. You'll need to rake it occasionally to redistribute the stones and maintain an even surface. Pros also recommend installing weed barrier fabric beneath the gravel to prevent unwanted growth, although some weeds may still appear over time.
